Inktober sketch #2

For my second Inktober sketch I wanted to make something more in the spirit of the season (Autumn) and so decided to make a sketch of myself and Pancake, my Border Collie (or rather my former Border Collie), out for a walk in the woods during Autumn.

Didn’t turn out quite the way I envisioned so I’m a little disappointed in this one. An earlier trial sketch using just Pigma Micron fineliners I felt turned out better. I’m not going to show that earlier version because I made several mistakes too many but I’m thinking I should redo it.

Below, is the top sketch at an earlier stage; I think I actually might prefer this.
